when your new boss asks you to go to a baseball game ...
in an hour ...
because his brother is in the hospital (hence the extra ticket)...
and his girlfriend is tied up in meetings all day ...
and the die-hard (male) METS fan in your office (that he of course asked first) can't go because he has to take his girlfriends kids to a carnival ...
and someone mentioned that YOU were also a METS fan ...
It is not a date, for all of the above reasons ... but mostly because your decline the offer (graciously, of course) for several reasons. Such as:
1) you have work to do this afternoon
2) you are in a light skirt and heels and it's a cloudy, rainy, cool day.
3) you are a METS fan ... but not exactly the biggest fan.
4) you have only known this man about 5 weeks, and for crying out loud he's your BOSS and what would you talk about for the next 5 hours?
5) you don't want to listen to you co-workers comments for the next six years!
6) and he's going because he's ROOTING FOR THE OTHER TEAM!!!!
Well, c'mon ... what would YOU have done???
p.s. Phew! Good thing I didn't go isn't it?
